Swift

I started learning Swift (via https://www.udemy.com/complete-ios-developer-course) a few months ago. I was planning to create an application that will give me alerts for specific stock data price changes. Although this app hasn’t materialize yet, I find from developing that app, that learning Swift seems to be very straight forward and easy. The language itself is not that complicated to learn – as long as you are familiar with the C-style syntax. The XCode application is remarkable in its development tools. The IDE has a wide range of features that can help an app developer initiate and finally upload their apps on the app store.

Of course, for the likes of me, I haven’t really uploaded an app yet since I’m still learning the language, but I’m really impresses with the wide variety of channels that can be used to learn the language. One I wanted to be specific about is the Playground.

The playground is just a project within xcode that a student can use to code Swift. It can be use as a running ground to write code and see the results instantly.
